The tea loving Tibetans of Dharamsala - India News
"Dharamsala - Tea drinking is an age-old habit among Tibetans in this abode of the Dalai Lama. Not only do they drink different types of the beverage, they are also particular about the way tea is sipped.
Salted butter tea, made of Brick tea from China and Tibetan leaves, is hugely popular. The leaves are boiled in soda and poured into a cylindrical vessel and are then churned along with salt and yak butter."
